Humanitarian Experience in Guatemala

Our family (the Garvins) recently went to Guatemala to pick up our son Daniel, from his mission. He served 20 months in the jungles of Polochic where he spoke an ancient Mayan dialect called Kekchi. There is very little civilization there and the people who live in the higher mountains have dirt floors, no elecrticity or running water.

We took with us 30 of the portable washers that we all bought last month. It was a wonderful experience trying to teach these people a new way of doing their wash. Below is a 5 minute video of our experience with these people.
